In Japan, the significance of the moon plays a huge part in folklore, and from what I have noticed, manga in general; Sailor Moon, Kaguya the moon princess in Naruto, the crescent moon in Bleach, the list may be endless, but it is here in this yaoi manga too. Previously I had read and reviewed some crazy titles, I would have to say this is a more sombre one with some folklore attached to it.

When, most of the time I have read yaoi manga based on fantasy, sci-fi or modern day, it's good to get into a decent period drama. This is more like You Higuri's Gorgeous Carat where an aristocratic young man, Lord Akihito has an intense love for Master Katsuragi, though as etiquette dictates, the young lord must find himself a wife.

GUEST POST: RENAE LUCAS-HALL

Appeal for Recommendations from a Manga/Anime Novice by Renae Lucas-Hall (Guest Post)


During my first trip to Japan, when I was seventeen years old, I noticed something very different about Japanese university students – they spend a lot of their class time reading manga. I’d always thought comics and animation were for small children but I was forced to rethink this idea when I sat in on a class at Sophia University in Tokyo many years ago.
